Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters to kilometers is 0.001, which means that 1 meter is equal to 0.001 kilometers:

1 m = 0.001 km

To convert 974 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 974 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from meters to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m → 0.001 km

974 m → L_(km)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in kilometers:

L_(km) = 974 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.974 km

The final result is:

974 m → 0.974 km

We conclude that 974 meters is equivalent to 0.974 kilometers:

974 meters = 0.974 kilometers
